  • Here's what to order at Lotus of Siam in Las Vegas if you like authentic Thai food. Lotus of Siam is said to be one of the best Thai restaurants in Las Vegas, maybe the best Thai restaurant in America, or even the best Thai restaurant in the world. The Lotus of Siam menu includes khao soi (coconut curry noodle soup), nam kao tod (crispy rice with sour sausage), nua dad deaw (Issan style beef jerky) and other authentic northern Thai foods. We ordered the khao soi with short rib, crispy rice with sour sausage, Issan style beef jerky, garlic prawns, and Thai stuffed chicken wings.
    I also tried Thai chicken wings at a local Las Vegas restaurant called Archi's Thai. Watch my review of Archi's Thai here: "I Ate THAI Fried Chicken!" • I Ate THAI Fried Chick...

    Every time we go to Las Vegas, we never miss going to Lotus of Siam, we go at least 2-3 times for each visit for which it is around 4 days!!! Unless you go to Thailand, you cannot find anything that is better than their food. The broth in both Beef Noodle soup and the Wonton soup is very flavorful, but our all-time favorite is the spicy thai ribeye salad, we get this with each order. You are worth the trip each time!!!

  • @lorrieg.2607

    The prawn shells themselves are my favorite part of that dish. Fried so perfectly it’s almost like eating potato chips. Love lotus of Siam.. love watching you two also. Your fiancé has such a soothing voice and quite the way with words, always a pleasure to watch (well, hear her) you guys.

    I ate there once because it was "an open restaurant around the corner from me" when I was staying at the next door Four Points (they temporarily relocated in 2017 after a roof collapse). Was surprised to learn it had such a reputation (sat at the bar, talked with staff) and had an amazing meal, totally worth the reputation.

  • @juliyamaxwell
    @juliyamaxwell 3 роки тому +4

    As someone from Laos (Thailand's neighbor) where we have many dishes that are similar to or the same as Northern Thai/Issan dishes, Catherine is right about the fried Issan jerky. Savor it in smaller bites! It's great with both sticky and steamed rice. Your jaw muscles got quite the workout, haha!

  • @bdel1977

    I have eaten at Lotus of Siam almost every time I have visited Las Vegas. I have always had a great meal there! There are 2 locations, the original on East Sahara Avenue in the Commercial Center & the 2nd location on East Flamingo Road. The 2nd location has a full bar, while the original location has beer, wine & sake. The 2nd location has a much better decor & atmosphere than the original! My 1st visit to Las Vegas was in June 2007. I have lost track how many times I have stayed on the Las Vegas Strip.

  • @hzenn5516
    @hzenn5516 4 роки тому +2

    I hope you and your fiance ate the shells of the Garlic Prawns. The shells taste like garlic-flavored shrimp chips. It's the best part of this dish. If you didn't have any of the shells, then it was $25 wasted. The shells are THAT good.

  • @Julianthe1970
    @Julianthe1970 2 роки тому +1

    The jerky, roughly translats into "one day sunlight beef," is normally marinated and dried one day (in sun) before frying. This is why it's tough. It's normally eaten with sticky rice and other popular northern dishes like papaya salad, larb, and spicy chilli sauces in northern thailand. Since I'm Thai, wish someone was there to explain the dishes a bit more. Hearing you try to speak Thai made my ears twitch, Derrick.. Lol. Thanks for the review, I look forward to going there with my family next time we're in LV!

  • @thaidaym
    @thaidaym 4 роки тому +1

    Stuff like the jerky your supposed to rip it in pieces and eat it but every restaurant does it different regarding the size. Usually Thais get different appetizers like that and chill with some beer.

    I've eaten there and the food, although pricey, is outstanding! I like spice and usually order at a level of 5. I find that level is very spicy and more authentic to Thai foods. My friend thought he was tough and tried spice level 10. His mistake! He couldn't take it and gave up!😆

    Nice looking meal, Mr. Derek. However, such a small order of steamed rice with your beef rib curry. Seems like more of an order for one. Ask for another (steamed rice) next time.

    Derek, every now & then it would be fun to watch the 2 of you attempt to duplicate your favorite recipes at home. I just KNOW you can make good shrimp at home for less that $32 bucks for 6 shrimp. (When on sale at Albertson's I get 2 lbs of 16-20 size for $10.) I enjoyed your at home "LOCKDOWN" videos......but then I even enjoyed seeing what was in your fridge. :)
